Chapter 108 This is called snapshot
Come on, sister, let’s go to the creek in a few days and take some more pictures. There are some big rocks over there. Let’s climb up and take some more pictures. The scenery over there is pretty good,” said Li Meng.
Wu Ruirui also put on her most beautiful clothes. Li Meng combed her hair into two small buns on both sides of her head and tied two pink bows on them. She took two cute photos, then changed her clothes and hair and took two more photos.
Then the four of them huddled together to take two selfies, and then they took a few more photos together. They looked at the photos in their hands and laughed so hard that people outside the yard could hear their happy laughter.
"How about we go to town to send the photos tomorrow?" Wu Ruirui suggested, looking very anxious.
"Let's go the day after tomorrow. I'll see if the villagers have any mountain products tomorrow. We can buy some and send them back for our family to try. The New Year is almost here." Li Laidi thought of his frail younger brother and sister-in-law, and planned to save money for a few more days so that he could buy more things and send them back.
"I have dried the remaining wild boar meat from last time into bacon. You can take some and send it back to your family to try," Li Meng said generously when she heard them say this.
"We can't take it from you for free. You just need to deduct the fee from our commission. Otherwise, we won't want it," said Li Laidi.
In the past, Li Laidi liked to take advantage of others, but she was also a sentimental person. She would be nice to whoever was nice to her, no matter what her purpose was in the previous contact. But now she really regards Li Meng as her good friend. Friends should interact with each other, otherwise who would play with you in the future?
"Okay, I know you wouldn't take it even if I gave it to you for free. Let's take more photos these days. When we are not so busy, we will go to the mountains to hunt some game to eat during the New Year," Li Meng said happily.
Wu Ruirui was drooling at the thought of the delicious spicy rabbit meat, so he was the first to express his support.
Thinking that they still had to go take photos of the villagers they had booked in the afternoon, the few of them planned to have lunch early. Li Meng and Wu Ruirui agreed that in the afternoon Wu Ruirui would take simple photos, Li Meng would take complicated photos, Zhou Hui would register and collect money, and Li Laidi would be responsible for helping.
"What are you discussing? I've already entered the yard, but you didn't hear anything. If a thief came and emptied your house, you wouldn't be able to find out." The team leader walked in with his hands behind his back. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw four people gathered together as if they were discussing something.
"Hey, are we discussing what to eat for lunch?" Li Meng started talking nonsense.
"I'd never trust you. You must be thinking of some bad ideas again," the captain said unhappily.
"Uncle, you are not here just to irritate me! When have I ever come up with a bad idea? They are all good ideas! Good ideas to make money." Li Meng walked forward with a smile, and while the captain was still pouting, he held up the Polaroid camera and took a picture.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? What are you doing? If you want to take a picture of me, please wait until I've cleaned up before taking the picture!" The captain quickly covered his face. He was slow to react. This little girl must have taken an ugly picture of him.
"Haha, uncle, this is called candid photography. It means taking the most natural photo when the person is least prepared." Li Meng playfully shook the photo he had just taken in his hand.
"Show us." Wu Ruirui took the photo curiously and immediately laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.
Li Laidi and Zhou Hui also stepped forward to take a look, and also covered their mouths to hold back their laughter, haha,
In the photo, the captain had a pouty mouth and a hunched back, looking like an old lady with a sunken mouth. No wonder they all wanted to laugh.
"Give it to me quickly," the team leader stepped forward and snatched the photo. As soon as he saw it, he wanted to laugh. If other villagers saw this, how could he retain his dignity?
"You kid, come on! I'm taking the photo away, and you are not allowed to tell anyone," the captain pretended to be stern.
The three of them shook their heads and promised not to tell anyone.
"Uncle, you haven't told me why you are here?" Li Meng asked with a smile.
"What can I do! What do you think I can do? It was because your aunt came to my house with photos to show off that you took beautiful photos, and wanted me to come over and take two photos. If she hadn't said that, I wouldn't have come." After saying this, she shook her head proudly.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault for not taking a picture of you right away. Come on, I'll take a picture of you now. You can take as many pictures as you want. Where do you think is a good place to take them?" Li Meng tried to hold back her laughter and spoke in a pinched voice.
"Hmph, then I'll let you take two photos reluctantly. Come to my house. Your aunt is cooking at home, and I asked me to call you over to eat together. The three of you can come too." The captain waved to the three people who were standing behind Li Meng and grinning.
The three people were flattered. This was the first time that the captain invited them to his home for dinner!
"Uncle, you go back first. I'll pack the things I need to take for taking photos and will be there soon," Li Meng greeted.
"Okay, then I'll go back and wait for you. Hurry up." The captain nodded with satisfaction, then walked away with his hands behind his back after saying this.
After leaving Li Meng's house, the captain took out the photo in his pocket and looked at it. He didn't expect that he looked so funny in the photo. This was his first color photo. He must keep it well and take it out to look at it when he is old. It is really meaningful.
"Mengmeng, we can't go to the captain's house for dinner empty-handed. What do you think we should bring with us?" Wu Ruirui asked, a little unsure.
"Just bring something, it's fine as long as it's enough. The captain is not that kind of person. He won't bother with these empty formalities from us." Although Li Meng said this, in the end the four people decided to bring a piece of bacon and a bottle of the meat sauce they made earlier. Li Laidie also brought a bottle of pickles, and Wu Ruirui brought a bottle of canned food. They put them all in a basket, and then they can just say that everyone brought it together.
The four of them took their things, locked the door, and went to the captain's house together. At that time, only the captain and his wife were at home. The son went back to his mother's home with his daughter-in-law and grandson, and had not returned yet.
"Aunt, this is our first visit to your house. This is a small gift. You must accept it." Zhou Hui handed the bamboo basket to the captain's wife.
The captain's wife concealed her joy, pretended to refuse a few times, and finally accepted it.
"Uncle, let's start. Do you want to take a picture alone first, or take a picture with my aunt?" Li Meng took out a Polaroid camera and asked while standing in the yard.
"Let's take the individual photos first. Your aunt still has to cook." The captain sounded a little impatient.
Li Meng also noticed it and thought to herself, this old man is really stubborn. If he wants to take the photo, why not just say so? He was still so stubborn and said that his wife asked him to take the photo.
"Okay, then where do you think it would be a good place to take the photo?"
"Let's do it in the yard. I'll sit here and you take the picture. You have to take good-looking pictures of me, okay? Not like the ones you took just now," the captain said with a fierce look on his face.
Li Meng covered her mouth and laughed, thinking, even though you were so disgusted, I didn't see you tear up the photo. Didn't you just secretly put the photo in your pocket and took it away? You just keep talking stubbornly!
